White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Thursday that President Donald Trump still “strongly” believes Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation is a “witch hunt,” despite the assertions of his own hand-picked FBI director.
At a press briefing Thursday, a reporter asked about FBI Director Christopher Wray’s affirmation to the Senate Appropriations Committee Wednesday that the Mueller probe is not a witch hunt.
“The President knows that there was no collusion in the campaign, and he has been quite clear about this,” Sanders responded. “It’s gone on for over a year. They found no evidence of collusion, and still strongly believe that it’s a witch hunt.”
Trump called Mueller’s probe a “witch hunt” twice on his Twitter account Thursday.
Later in the briefing, a reporter made reference to another tweet of Trump’s on Thursday, asking Sanders if Trump believed “that the FBI had a spy at one point inside of his campaign?”
“I haven’t spoken with him directly about that, but I’ve certainly seen the reports and if there is any truth to that it should certainly be looked into,” Sanders said.
The New York Times reported Wednesday that, during the 2016 campaign, “at least one government informant met several times with [Carter] Page and [George] Papadopoulos, current and former officials said.”
Whoopdyshit what the dotard believes. No doubt he believes Mueller’s investigation is a witch hunt. He believes he’s a successful businessman. He believes Americans actually love him. He believes he has big, beautiful hands.
His beliefs are not merely contrary to reality, they are orthogonal to reality. Completely uncorrelated.
He is a sad, strange little man, and no one cares what he thinks except those who grovel at him.
Witch hunts, historically speaking, almost invariably found witches. This is what Trump fears most.
Trump knows he is guilty but he does not believe we have the right to do anything about.
He is now and always has been so wonderful that the laws are for others and he is above others.
If Whiny has been chosen by God to be president, how come there are so many witches in his campaign and administration? I mean 22 indictments and over 70 charges so far.
Of course it is and so far they found the Wicked Witch of the West and are closing in on the Wicked Witch of Mar-a-Lago…
